For my birthday this year, I asked for a new graphics card.  The one I got isn’t the one I asked for, it was an overclocked card.  I usually go for reference card designs to avoid any headaches, (when you get older, headaches trump speed), but this card was awesome!  Easy to overclock, powerful.  It was great.  Except with Arma 3.  Arma 3 wouldn’t run.

I tried for two months, giving up several times after hours of google searching and trying different variations of settings.  But recently I fixed it by completely underclocking my card.  LOL.  Headaches!

Anyway, I’m back to editing and am loving some of the new things that have come up in Arma 3 since I’ve been away, specifically ropes!  Ropes are awesome.  You can have so much fun with them.

But first things first.  I’m putting the final touches on my long-awaited Raven addon update.  Here’s a quick list of things I’ve fixed in version 2.5:
